Dont get one unless your CPU has an IHS.

I just crushed my Barton with one, lol.




So I'm getting a P4 Dual 805. I'll let you know how the Overclock goes.

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

no not really because they are freaking expensive here and are also hard to get (always out of stock) - i can nearly get a zalman 9500 for what they cost. The swiss are crazy when it comes to a swiss product and they are willing to pay whatever price is demanded. Also i got a good deal on the big typhoon (20 CHF as an upgrade when i bought the opty)

BTW: thanks for supporting me

Why not try the AC freezer pro 64 instead of the freezer 4?

6 heat pipes instead of 4. 


edit!
I'm stupid... it's because the OP is cooling a socket A right?  duhh...

1. The big typhoon claims to be fine on an AXP.

2. Those Arctic Cooling coolers are really very bad!

if you knew something about the Arctic Cooling coolers then you wouldn't be saying that they are bad.  The AC Freezer64 is an awesome heatsink/fan and definitely one of the best bang for the bucks out there.  The sound and performacne compete with the top of the line products out there and costs $20-$30 less.

That just got stuck on my 'To Buy' list. I'm currently having some difficulty tracking one down in the UK though. I take it they are awesomely good?
EDIT: And what is an IHS?

sorry max, but you can't compare your special price offers to the regular prices people have to pay. different prices come with local tax politics, deal with it.

Yea, it's a warning spreading by word of mouth. There is no mention of an IHS in the K7 installation instructions.





And... I Have an Arcrtic cooling Silencer on my 9700PRO, it's very good. I used to have one of their CPU coolers too, and they SUCK!

sorry about calling you noob, i never looked on the TT page. It's just that there was a huge red warning on the site i bought it from about mounting on a K7.
